Hi:This definitely really happens. I had a sister who had a minor meltdown over an A- that ruined her 4.0 GPA.
Lale: In my personal experience, this hurts even worse than a really bad grade like a D. Coming so close and missing is so frustrating.
Cynthia Wakefield: Uh, what does the Daria example have to do with anything? If she received a B instead of an A because of failure to wear her glasses, that would count, but I'm not sure what it's talking about with "the personal integrity version." No personal integrity version is given in the trope description.
